English Christian Song | "The Characteristics of Dispositional Change"
October 28, 2024
I
The first characteristic of change in life disposition is being able to submit to things that are right and conform to the truth. No matter who offers an opinion, whether they are old or young, whether you are able to get along with them or not, whether you know them or not, whether you're familiar with them or not, whether your relationship with them is good or bad, so long as what they say is right, conforms to the truth, and is beneficial to the work of God's house, you'll be able to listen to, adopt, and accept it, without being influenced by any other factors. The second characteristic is being able to seek the truth when something happens; it's not only about being able to accept the truth, it's also about practicing the truth, and not handling matters based on your own will. No matter what happens to you, you'll be able to seek when you can't see things clearly, and look at how to handle the issue, and how to practice in a way that conforms to the truth principles and satisfies God's requirements.
II
The third characteristic of dispositional change is considering God's intentions no matter what issue you face, rebelling against the flesh to achieve submission to God. You'll consider God's intentions no matter what duty you're performing, and you'll perform your duty according to God's requirements. Whatever requirements God has for this duty, you will act according to those requirements while performing it, and act in order to satisfy God. You must grasp this principle, and perform your duty responsibly and loyally. That is what it means to consider God's intentions. If you do not know how to consider God's intentions or satisfy God in a certain matter, then you must seek. If you have practical experience and paths of practice in these three areas, then you'll be handling matters with principles.
